Dental Implants Atlanta, GA

Dental implants have quickly become the “gold standard” for the replacement of missing teeth. Providing several important benefits for patients, a dental implant closely mimics a natural tooth and restores a comfortable and fully functional smile.

Atlanta dentist Dr. Deborah King restores dental implants in her Buckhead dentist office and recommends them when appropriate for a lasting result.

Dental Implants: What To Consider

The dental implant procedure is a multi step process, involving the initial surgical placement of a tiny titanium post which will support your prosthetic tooth: a dental crown permanently attached to the post. Dr. King will discuss all aspects of your procedure prior to treatment and provide a personalized plan to restore your smile with a dental implant.
Benefits of dental implants:

98% success rate (highest rate compared to other dental procedures)

Prevents bone loss and gum recession

Promotes a healthier diet with fresh foods

Unlike bridgework requires no preparation to neighboring teeth

Improves speech

Improves comfort in denture wearing patients

Dental Implants: What To Expect

Dr. King will meet with you to thoroughly examine your oral health and discuss your medical history, personal concerns and cosmetic goals to determine if dental implants are right for you. Appropriate impressions and scans will be taken to be used in placing the implant and fabricating a natural looking dental crown which will function as a new tooth.

Dr. King will coordinate the surgical phase of your treatment with a local specialist. It typically takes 3-6 months for the bone to integrate with the post and the soft tissues to completely heal.

The final restoration will be placed in our Buckhead dentist office and Dr. King will provide personalized care instructions for maintaining the health of your dental implant for many years. Dental implants are permanent and do not require any daily maintenance other than a good oral hygiene routine of flossing and tooth brushing. During routine dental care visits, Dr. King and her staff will monitor the health of your dental implant to ensure a lasting result.
